transition was a modernist literary journal devoted to publishing experimental art, poetry, fiction, and theory in the early twentieth century. In addition to the enormous influence it had on the literary avant-garde in the period, it is especially notable for publishing James Joyce's serial fragments of "Work in Progress" which would eventually become Finnegan's Wake.

transition 15 was published in February 1929 and was edited by Eugene Jolas and contributing editors Matthew Josephson, Eilliot Paul, and Robert Sage.
